Scottish singer Susan Boyle is set to start her maiden American tour after achieving global stardom since appearing on Britain’s Got Talent in 2009

The I Dreamed a Dream singer, Susan Boyle, also known as SuBo, shot to fame on ITV talent show Britain’s Got Talent and has since become a global star, winning an American fan base who will see her perform as part of her 2014 world tour.

“This is a brilliant moment for me. I am so very proud to be announcing that I will be performing in my very own tour in the US. This is very exciting,” she said.

“The past five years have been incredible and it just keeps getting better. I have spoken so often about wanting to tour America and it is actually happening.

“The Americans have embraced me since the beginning and I can’t wait to hit the road. I’m hoping it will be in a tour bus so I can see more of the country as we travel across the US,” she added.
